【媒体评论】
"Burningham is admired as a fearless original whose wit and senseof fun should be a part of every infancy. Burningham's books worknot only because of their witty line and strong sense of atmospherebut also because he has perfect recall of a child's sense ofboundless possibility. Jonathan Cape's appreciation of Burningham'swork will be appreciated in its turn by adults"
"John Burningham's books always hit the mark. He's a fabulouslyfunny and inventive illustrator who also writes well; quite a rarecombination. This lovely book is a retrospective of hiswork"
"All in all this is a beautiful and informative book, essential forpicture book enthusiasts and useful as a reference work for designstudies"
